tv   CNN Newsroom With Brooke Baldwin  CNN  August 29, 2019 12:00pm-1:00pm PDT

12:00 pm
thursday we're watching hurricane dorian making a slow churn to the u.s.. dorian is expected to make landfall somewhere along florida's east coast by monday. as a powerful category 4. right now the storm remains a category 1. it's out in the atlantic. the entire state of florida has been warned to prepare for tworts. floridians from key west to jacksonville are buying up everything in sight. look at those store shelves. they are empty. the governor has declared a state of emergency. he's telling residents to stock at least one week's worth of supplies. they are not taking any chances. cnn meteorologist has the latest. allison, where is dorian right now? >> reporter: over the open atlantic which in theory sounds great. not impacting any land. you have to under it's over those warm ocean temperature and that's fuel for a tax reform like this. just recently they did just send out the most recent hurricane hunters flight that just got
12:01 pm
dispatched. fun fact. first all female three pilot flight crew. they will go out, take a look at the current statistics for the actual storm, take measurements to determine whether or not the previous statistics we had for this have since changed. what we do know right now winds are sustained at 85 miles per hour. it's moving northwest at 13 miles per hour. that's what that mission will go out and determine if the storm has strengthened. has it intensified even more since the last mission they just went on. that will also help in determining better of a track, knowing what direction it's going in. is it still at that movement of northwest at 13 miles per hour. right now this is the anticipated track we expect it to take. going north of most of the bahamas, it is expected to intensify up to a category 4 storm before it makes landfall into florida. again, we talked about the incredibly warm ocean temperatures out there. mid-80s and even some portions being in the upper 80s. this will help to intensify and
12:02 pm
strengthen dorian from where it right now. the main concern is going to be impacts to florida. here's a look. regardless of where it actually makes its landfall point this is a graphic showing where tropical storm strength winds will stretch out. we still anticipate landfall to be up around category 4 strength. but the tropical storm force winds will expand well outside of that landfall point. you can see a huge swath of areas still likely to have wind speeds up around 70 if not even 80 miles per hour. so that's another thing for folks to understand. even if you are not in the path of the actual landfall, anywhere in florida is still likely going to have incredibly strong wind gusts and potential for flooding because of storm surge as well as heavy rainfall. >> on that note, in the past, different storms have produced different the threats. this one more threatening
12:03 pm
because of wind speed or is the rainfall to be torrential or is it the storm surge? >> reporter: it's going to be both. it depends where you are. if you are at the landfall point, your biggest concern is going to be the strong winds because remember they are up around 130 miles per hour. but for some of the surrounding communities, especially on the coastal regions it will be that storm surge and heavy rainfall that will likely be the biggest impact. so, again, this is, unfortunately, one of the storms where just about everyone in florida is likely going to have some type of impact from this storm. >> we have been warned. thank you. florida officials are serious about making sure people are ready for this storm. they sent out a disaster supply checklist. so far no evacuations have been called for. again we're watching where this storm goes in the next couple of days and officials may make adjustments. businesses, even florida tourist spots are heeding the warnings.
12:04 pm
multiple crew linuise lines are adjusts their itineraries. military bases are relocating aircraft to other states. we go to cape canaveral now. >> reporter: as we expect the day here we're hearing same response from businesses and government officials and residents who are saying look we're used to hurricanes. it's still a little bit early but when you ask them what is your biggest concern? every single person responded with the same answer and that is a direct hit. so, while some people may feel it's still a little bit early they are certainly getting ready. we've seen waste management going around, trying to pick up any tree branches that may be out there in the stores. they are starting to limit the amount of water that you can buy, the city is planning on bringing in sand tomorrow so folks can get bags and prepare
12:05 pm
for what may come here. you may have noticed this behind me. here at cape canaveral. there's a storm here. this may be one of the last ones you see if changes are made to adjust. now, of course, with those cruise ships come a lot of tourists and that's where many are concerned the impact could be. listen to part of the conversation i had with one hotel manager. >> the whole weekend is ruined. >> how much will you lose here? >> this hotel, in excess of $120,000. >> for this hurricane. >> yes hurricane. two days in august. then september because the 1st of september sunday, moan, another 50, 60. costly to the whole area. bad timing. this could be a scary one too. >> what's your biggest concern?
12:06 pm
>> a direct hit. >> reporter: told you. that was the response, direct hit. now, remember this is an area that ares very well the impact of a hurricane, many folks bringing up hurricane irma. in fact, there's still one hotel here that hasn't opened since irma, hoping to do so by the end of the year. now dorian could come and cause quite a bit of damage. but, again, a lot of folks closely monitoring, paying attention to what the county, the city, the state is advising and waiting to see what will come this way. >> thank you. much more on that story just ahead. but first when robert mueller was appointed special counsel it fulfilled the hope of james comey. he testified it was the reason he leaked details of his memos detailing his meetings with president trump. >> my judgment was i needed to
12:07 pm
get that out into the public square so i asked a friend of mine to share the content of the people mon memo with a reporter. i thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel. in asked a close friend of mine to do it. >> now the inspector general of the justice department says comey's action violated policy. it's long awaited this report. just came out today. comey will not be facing any criminal prosecution for breaking the rules. we have the details. sara explain how comey's actions went against justice department policy and why, though, they are deciding not to prosecute? >> reporter: this report is pretty damning when it comes to comey's behavior. he set a dangerous precedent in the way he handled these memos he wrote. he documented his conversations with president trump.
12:08 pm
but the ig's concern was the way he retained that information and disseminated that information some of which contained classified material. this report says comey had several other lawful openings available to him to advocate for the appointment of a special counsel which was his goal in making the disclosure. what was not permitted the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive classified information obtained during the course of fbi employment in order to achieve a personally desired outcome. now the report notes that this section of the memo that ultimately james comey through a friend shared with reporters didn't contain classified material and comey took to twitter to say i'm not a leaker or a liar. the ig still had a number of concerns with comey's behavior. they referred this over to the department of justice the to decide if they want to prosecute it. ultimately the doj said they would not bring charges against comey because they didn't feel the evidence was there that
12:09 pm
comey knew and intended to violate the rules in handling classified material. >> thank you. still ahead the president considers yet another move that would please vladimir putin. powerful words from a u.s. attorney in response to threats made against a jewish community center. hear his stern warning for white supremacists. >> 200 companies tell president trump what you're doing will cost jobs. i'll speak with a ceo of one of them.
12:10 pm
12:11 pm
12:12 pm
thanks to priceline working with top airlines to turn their unsold seats into amazing deals, family reunion attendance is up. we're all related! yeah, i see it. and because priceline offers great deals by comparing thousands of prices in real time, sports fans are seeing more away games. various: yeah-h-h! is that safe? oh, y... ahh! not at all. no, ma'am. nope. and more people than ever are enjoying romantic getaways. (romantic music) that's gross priceline. every trip is a big deal.
12:13 pm
that's gross hey, who are you? oh, hey jeff, i'm a car thief... what?! i'm here to steal your car because, well, that's my job. what? what?? what?! (laughing) what?? what?! what?! [crash] what?! haha, it happens. and if you've got cut-rate car insurance, paying for this could feel like getting robbed twice. so get allstate... and be better protected from mayhem... like me. ♪
12:14 pm
>> tough words and federal charges for the 20-year-old accused of making threats against a jewish community center in youngstown, ohio. last month he threatened gun violence on that center. his instagram account contained anti-semitic and white nationalist comments. today the u.s. attorney for northwest ohio spoke directly to white supremacists during his briefing on this reardon case. >> let me speak generally for those for white supremacy.
12:15 pm
the constitution protects your right to speak, your right to think, and your right to believe. if you want to waste the blessings of liberty by going down a path of hatred and failed ideologies that's your choice. democracy allows to you test those ideas in a public forum. if you want to submit your beliefs to the american people and get their reaction, please be our guest. keep this in mind, though. thousands and thousands of young americans already voted with their lives to ensure this same message of intolerance, death and destruction would not prevail. you can count their ballots by visiting any american cemetery in north africa, italy, france or belgium. you can also recite the many names of civil rights activists who bled and died in posing supporters of those same ideologies of hatred. their voices may be distant but can still be heard. threatening to jewish people,
12:16 pm
gunning down hispanics, sitting to pray with god-fearing people who you execute moments later, those actions don't make you soldiers they make could you wards. law enforcement does not go to war with cowards who break the law. we arrest them and send them to prison. >> reardon is in federal custody and charged with transmitting threatening communications by interstate commerce. >> a school shooting plot that was foiled at a north carolina university. police say they found a pistol, a shotgun and ammunition. the student had a plan to kill. cnn's martin savidge is covering this story for us. what are you learning about this student and his possible motivation? >> reporter: a number of things. first and foremost he had only been on campus less than two weeks. he was a freshman and came from boston, massachusetts but he
12:17 pm
specifically went to high point, north carolina. according to the authorities, the reason he says he went to that school was in part because this is where he wanted to carry out his alleged plot of mass killing. the reason being because he thought that that state it would be easier to obtain a weapon. he didn't go to the school there because of the school, he went there because he thought it would be easier to get the weapons to carry out the attack. he was not just planning something which they claim he has said started back in december, but that he was preparing. so he purchased the two weapons. a shotgun and a nine millimeter semiautomatic. he had been watching videos of other mass killings such as the one that took place in charleston, south carolina. apparently to learn what the mistakes were, at least the ones he believed were made in carrying out those attacks. now he's also reportedly told police as far as a motivation he said he was not going to be an outcast any longer.
12:18 pm
he also said that he had been rushing for a fraternity there and depending on how that turned out, in other words if his roommate got accepted but he was not, that might have been a potential triggering point that could launch this allege attack. and we also know now that he's being held without bond. he's been expelled from the university. and there is likely to be some sort of psychological profile. this was discovered because of another student that saw the weapons and realize there was something terribly wrong. authorities moved in on tuesday. they found the weapons and the ammunition in his dorm room. >> wow. just goes to show if you see something say something. no what ifs. martin savidge, thank you. information defense secretary james mattis is out with a new book. people are interested in reading his account of his military service he's finding they are most keen to talk about his last
12:19 pm
job as secretary of defense for the trump administration. the atlantic has a new article entitled the man who couldn't take it the any more. general mattis said he had no choice to leave after eight months ago after disagreeing with the president leaving syria. joining us now with more cnn's pentecost correspondent barbara starr. let me read a few direct quote from the book. this was just mattis kind of giving some lessons learned here is my understanding. it says coach and encourage, don't berate, least of all in public. public humiliation does not change our friends, behaviors or attitudes in a positive way. operations occur at the speed of trust. nations with allies thrive and those without wither. these seem to be rebukes to the way president trump runs his presidency. is this mattis' way of protecting the country? >> reporter: well, i think it's
12:20 pm
perhaps his long standing views of military leadership, of leadership at the top, and, you know, we'll leave to it people to come to their own judgment, i suppose, about whether they do think he's referring to president trump. i think an awful lot of people who know jim mattis think he is, you know -- he had never really was able to fully disguise his uncomfortableness at times in dealing with president trump. he never wanted to talk about it. and, you know, officially he still says he's not going to talk about the president. but if you ran into mattis around the hallways of the pentagon where he used to walk around, it was not a stretch to see that there were things that really concerned him and things that made him uncomfortable, and, yes, the issue that finally made him feel he had to resign was when the president wanted to withdraw all u.s. troops from syria and mattis felt that would be leaving u.s. allies that they
12:21 pm
had backed in syria leaving them behind and that's his ultimate lesson of leadership you don't leave anybody behind. that's the thing that made him feel he had to leave. >> in the politic piece jeffrey goldberg wrote this, his aides and friends said found the photo be of limited cognitive ability and dubious character and mattis wouldn't go there himself in his conversations with goldberg. he's still quoted saying you don't endanger the country by attacking the commander-in-chief. i may not like the commander-in-chief one bit but our system puts the commander-in-chief in there. i want people to understand why i couldn't stay. i have been informed by four decades of experience and i just couldn't connect the dots any more. what do you infer from his remarks? >> reporter: well, look, when you are serving either in the military or as the defense secretary, you simply are not allowed to publicly disparage
12:22 pm
the commander-in-chief. we have seen many former secretary of defense and four star generals write books and after the fact be very critical. there's nothing new there. but there's something very different. there's a growing number of very top officials, some recently retired who are concerned that donald trump has brought politics into the ranks of the u.s. military. whether it's, you know, the red make america great again hat all be it a handful of troops wearing, or trump himself making political partisan speeches to a military audience, a lot of concern about what is the trump administration fundamentally making the u.s. military an arm, if you will, of its politics. i mean, right now i think everyone would say that is not happening, but that is a concern. is the military going down that road under donald trump and those are the kinds of things
12:23 pm
that might start making top leaders come out more in public and talk more about all of this because if they remain silent, that can also be taken as complying. >> goldberg kept getting mattis to answer if donald trump was fit to be commander-in-chief. but mattis said i won't be silent forever. we have to watch and see when he finally decides to come out and really speak his mind. barbara starr, i really appreciate your reporting. >> thanks. >> another provocative move the trump administration ends automatic citizenship for children of some troops serving overseas. question is why? plus a manhunt for this married couple, both are accused of murder and on the run after a violent escape.

12:28 pm
under way after the brazen escape of two murder suspects. this husband and wife duo are accused of killing a 72-year-old man in tucson, arizona back in april. they were being extradited from new york to arizona on monday when police say they overpowered two security officers in utah and made a run for it. dan simon has more on the search. >> reporter: at this point
12:29 pm
they've been on the run for a couple of days. authorities think they can be anywhere. what they fear is that they are desperate, in need of money and because of that they could really resort to anything in order to evade being recaptured. as you said this all dates back to april when this couple blane and susan barksdale, they are accused of murdering a man in tucson, arizona. then about a month later they are captured in upstate new york. this week you that have extradition and in southern utah they pretended wording to authorities to have some kind of medical emergency and got the guards in the van to pull over and that's when they overpowered these guards and bound them and put them in the back of the van. as you can imagine this is not sitting well with the victim's relatives. i spoke to frank bly's brother. >> i know what it took to get the home be extra indicted back to arizona, the paper work and the courts and everything that was involved and all the work the detectives and everybody put
12:30 pm
into this thing. and to have the thing happen the way it did, it was just, you know, just stupid. >> reporter: well the pima county sheriff's office in arizona have a contract with a topeka, kansas based firm to perform these extradition and that firm not talking at this point. there will be a lot of questions of how this all occurred. right now the focus is on finding these fugitives and u.s. marshal's office is off earring $20,000 reward for anyone who provides information that threads their arrest. >> what story. new today the u.s. economy cooling off even faster than incredible reported. suggesting president trump's trade war with china is weighing more heavily on the american business sector. commerce department today revised downward the second quarter u.s. domestic gross domestic product gdp to 2% annualized growth rate. first estimate in july was 2.1%.
12:31 pm
that comes as the latest quinnipiac poll shows for the first time president trump was elected more american voters say the economy is getting worse. 37% say the economy is getting better is at 31%. that's a significant slide. down 14% since june when that poll showed 23% of voters believe the nation's economy was getting worse and 39% said it was improving. then this. president trump getting a major warning on his trade war from hundreds of american retailers including nike, puma and adidas urging trump to cancel his new tariffs on china set to begin sunday. more than 200 u.s. footwear companies signing a letter to trump saying his new 15% tariffs on shoes are quote job killers and his trade war is unnecessary. i want to bring in matt priest, ceo of footwear distributors and retailers of america, a trade organization advocating for the u.s. footwear industry.
12:32 pm
matt, you, i know, helped send this letter. have you heard anything back from the white house or the trump administration in response? >> reporter: thanks for having me on. we've not heard anything back from the administration and we're fastly approaching a midnight on sunday morning when these new tariffs will go into effect. your viewers should know we've been paying tariffs on footwear for 90 years. we know all too well what added costs will do for our consumers and that's why we're so concerned about what will take place this weekend. >> no response so far. you sent a previous letter in may. if trump doesn't respond what's your plan? will you demand a meeting with him? what's the next move? >> the next move is toed indicate american public. the sentiment on the economy is starting to go south a little bit. i can assure you as prices go up at the retail level, as consumers start buying more products that have additional tariffs on them they will have higher costs and start to show their concern by staying home
12:33 pm
and purchasing less product and doing less to get the american economy going on the consumer side and i think that's the best way we can handle it. for now the uncertainty is driving us crazy. we need many months to plan and many months to go in and try to ensure we have all the footwear our consumers need in the u.s. and these tariffs are not doing anything to help with that. >> you say trump's new tariffs will cost american consumers an additional $4 billion a year for shoes. this is according to the letter. explain how the costs add up to billions. >> absolutely. so we bring in 2.5 billion pairs of shoes every year and we bring in a number 1.5 billion of those come from china so as we bring those in and you add duties at the cost at the border most of our duty rates right now are 11% or 12% on average and average consumer duty rates only 1% or 2%. when you add those costs up and
12:34 pm
additional 15% on top of that that gets multiplied out the our supply chain. importer, distributor passes it on to the retailer who passes it on to the consumer. these things compound over time and just drives up more cost for the consumer. we know too well because we pay $3 billion on duties every year as the prices go up based on duties prices for consumers go up. we're the poster child of an industry that's impacted negatively by duties. >> you talk about jobs also being impacted if trump goes through with these new tariffs sun. we talking layoffs? >> i think what you'll find and what our conversations have borne out with our members on an hourly basis is you have these additional costs in the billions that are added on top to your overall costs as an organization, as a company, your less likely to invest in personnel, in systems and innovations and product and because you just don't know one
12:35 pm
what the uncertainty will do and two, how do you add on to something billions of dollars in added costs and have that not impact where you invest your resources into personnel and to innovation and other capital investments. we're starting to see that slow down and now we'll have an overall impact on the economy. this is just footwear. this will every type of consumer goods that americans purchase. it's going to drive up costs for consumers across the board as we head into the holiday season. >> matt priest, i appreciate it. thank you for being here. quite the week. president praises vladimir putin overseas, fights to get him back into g7 and considering another move that will make putin happy. florida in the bull he's ey for what's expected to be a
12:36 pm

12:40 pm
more now on our breaking pnews. hurricane dorian poised to make u.s. landfall as a category 4 storm. florida now in its direct path. i want to turn to democratic congressman dan soto whose 9th congressional district is in central florida. your district is more inland but could still feel the effects of the rain and wind. what's the number one thing you
12:41 pm
want residents to do now? >> to be prepared and take it seriously. get a couple of days worth of food and water. and flashlights as well as charge up your chargers and make sure your gas tank is filled. you know the very basics like having safety kits. we're doing our part with fema to prepare for what could be a category 4 to hit the coast along central florida. so everybody just needs to take it seriously and we'll wait and see. >> this is a big holiday weekend. i would imagine amusement parks and beaches are pretty popular, final weekend before end of summer. do you worry about florida taking a big economic hit as summer ends? >> certainly it's not going to be a joyous labor day weekend for central florida. i was just at universal today and i know them and disney will experience some cancelations but local residents, many times often will take up hotel rooms
12:42 pm
there, being that they generally don't lose power. so some of our central florida residents choose to wait out the hurricane in style at the theme parks. so they generally get more local business during this time period. >> you're the first person from florida, puerto rican descent to serve in congress according to your website. here's what trump is saying about this potential throat your state. hurricane dorian looks like it will hit florida late sunday night. be prepared. it will be one of the biggest hurricanes. congressman that's very straightforward but in stark contrast to how the president treated the threat to puerto rico calling the mayor of san juan incompetent, calling puerto rico one of the most corrupt places on earth saying he's the best thing that ever happened to puerto rico. all as hurricane, big storm was encroaching and coming closer. what do you make in the difference of tone? >> well it's more of a personal
12:43 pm
vendetta against puerto rico ever since president trump oversaw the worst disaster response in modern history, largest death toll, over 3,000 people, longest black out. and he has a sore spot for it because he knows it was a failure that cost lives. so now he's bitter about it and continues to attack leaders down there, whether it was the former governor, the current mayor or others. really that's not what we expect out of a president but this dwietder in chief it's just more of the same. in florida we had a better response with hurricane maria. and i expect we'll have a good response here with hurricane dorian. i had several briefings with fema. we have supplies waiting in the wings. we have folks embedded from fema throughout the state. we have the state of emergency called including two of the three counties i represent. w're gets ready and prepared and i know for central floridians this is not our first
12:44 pm
drill. so i'm very hopeful that despite the heavy storm coming in that we're going to be ready. >> president trump is considering taking away military aid to you crane which includes weapons, training, equipment, intel support. there was $250 million allocated to fund that, congressman. this is another action that will make putin happy, no? >> sure. it's a gift to his best buddy, and one of the biggest threats to our democracy, russia and vladimir putin. but it doesn't help with our allies in europe. certainly ukraine which used to be a puppet state of the soviet union, that has even had assassination attempts against its president for their independence from russia who continues to try to influence their society there. it's not an american interest. we want to promote democracies, not dictatorships like what russia seems to be with vladimir
12:45 pm
putin never having elections. we don't have a free press over there. so we need to make sure that ukraine doesn't become another one of them and part of that is that military might, making sure that russia knows they shouldn't be messing with ukraine and that $250 million is more of this nativism withdrawing from the national stage that we've seen whether it's in central america, europe or other areas like africa that president trump just is defying what congress has allocated and he's withdrawing from global leadership for our country. >> this money, these funds are under review right now. if ultimately it's rejected or withheld, what kind of response can we expect from congress? >> there will be lawsuits. we'll also use the budget for leverage. we're facing similar situation with the foreign aid to central america. when that was cut, we saw this
12:46 pm
refugee crisis start at the border with areas like honduras and nicaragua and el salvador gripped in bloody batles with cartels. foreign aid helps stabilize these regions or provide buffers to regions like europe with our investment in ukraine. also says to our allies you can't trust the word of the united states because the president at any time may undercut long standing agreements and relationships. that makes the homeland less safe whether it's with the refugee crisis or emboldening russia to mess with us and inintrude in our elections or whether destabilizing our strongest allies in europe. >> congressman soto i know it was a challenge to get to the studio today for our conversation. i'm so glad you made it here. thank you for being here. >> thank you. just ahead in the crowded field of democrats every candidate is looking for a way to connect with voters and for
